Māui took his very first purposeful ‘little flight’ yesterday off the 3rd staircase step to try to get to me. He has grown in one new flight feather in the middle of the wing, so this is helping give him a bit more lift with his old ratty 1st and 2nd flights.
I’m so excited but also now worried about keeping him safe with people coming in and out the doors. He lives in the main room downstairs so anyone coming in through the front or back door is an open invitation for him to fly out if scared before the door gets shut behind the person (house rule: shut external doors behind you!).
How does everyone reduce escape risk through external doors?
I’m currently thinking of getting two sets of rose magnetic fly screens and hanging them at the front and back door as an extra barrier when someone goes in/out, but I’m open to any other less annoying solutions.
